Horticulture NZ is inviting growers to attend their Introduction to Managing Risk in Horticulture workshop. This comprehensive workshop is designed to equip frontline managers and owners with the essential tools for identifying and controlling risks in the horticulture sector. What sets this workshop apart is its focus on managing risk following severe weather events and related hazards.
The training provides participants with the knowledge to proactively identify and control risks within their operations. This is especially crucial for ensuring that you and your staff stay safe during clean-up and replanting efforts following severe weather events.
Workshops are limited to 16 people per session and will be allocated on a first come first serve basis. Please RSVP to
